Sinopse

From one of the most important and representative authors of the 20th century and Nobel Prize winner for Literature.

Originally published in 1948, State of Siege is set in a small coastal town ravaged by plague and dominated by fear. For Camus, fear was the evil of the 20th century, and so he uses it as the guiding principle of this work, which, for many critics, is an allegory of occupation, dictatorship, and totalitarianism. This edition includes a foreword by Pierre-Louis Rey, historical documents, interviews, a note signed by the author about the play, and a testimony by Jean-Louis Barrault, recounting the story of his collaboration with Camus on the composition and staging of State of Siege and analyzing the reasons for its failure. The edition also presents reviews of the play, first performed on October 27, 1948, by the Madeleine Renaud-Jean-Louis Barrault Company, at the Théâtre Marigny, directed by Simmone Volterra and with Camus' response to the review, thus bringing together everything that has already been said about the play, which escapes realism, opens the scenic horizon and gives complete freedom to the director.
